PowerA has made all sorts of Switch controllers based on designs from both first-party and third-party titles. Its latest one, as revealed by an Amazon listing, is based around Minecraft to celebrate next month’s arrival of Minecraft Dungeons. The new controller is dropping in just a few days.
Here’s the official Amazon description:
Why has Cooking Mama: Cookstar been tough to find in stores and why was it removed from the eShop after going live for only a brief time? 1st Playable, the game’s developer, seems to believe it’s due to a legal battle. As for Planet Entertainment – the apparent publisher – it’s another story entirely.
Over on Twitter, Planet Entertainment mentioned that “the whole world is upside down with delays right now” when addressing why Cooking Mama: Cookstar is currently unavailable on Twitter – likely referencing the current situation with the coronavirus. The full statement reads:

The situation surrounding Cooking Mama: Cookstar just keeps getting stranger. After rumors circulated that the game was mining cryptocurrency – which was swiftly denied by the developer – a member of the team has come forward to further clarify what is actually happening.
The crux of the situation apparently involves a legal battle between publisher Planet Entertainment and IP holder Office Create. This has what resulted in the game’s removal from the eShop and scarcity in stores. Additionally, it looks like Planet Entertainment launched Cooking Mama: Cookstar “against a request by Office Create to keep polishing the game, or perhaps even canceling it.”
The staffer told Screen Rant:
A new 2020 Spring Sale from SEGA has just gone live on the eShop. Fans can save on SEGA Ages titles, Sonic, Valkyria Chronicles, and more.
